Study 1:
green tea prevents painful stones

According to a 2010 study drinking green tea may help prevent these painful stones from developing.

Previously, experts thought green tea would form stones because it affects the crystallization. Now, however, Chinese researchers found that the calcium oxalate crystals become less stable with green tea extract, turning into a different, much flatter shape, and breaking more easily.

As a result, they are less likely to clump together and form large urinary stones. The smaller crystals effortlessly continue their way through our kidney without forming stones.

Study 2: yep…no more stones…

Another study performed back in 1998, of more than 80,000 women, aged 40 to 65 years, confirms these findings as they concluded tea drinking was inversely associated with the development of urinary stones.

In other words:

tea reduces the risk in kidney stone formation by 8 per cent for women!

Frequent consumption of green tea may help you avoid the misery of kidney stone formation. And green tea may have other positive impacts on your health, thanks to its high antioxidant content.
